One day, a lovely friend brought this fabric to me and said, it's just so Meg. You must wear it! And so, I did. As cheesy as it sounds, I feel truly blessed to have people in my life that sacrifice fabric in my honour. Ok, maybe that was too cheesy...

In preparation for the Regency Sewing Guild's dressmaking class I figured maybe I should make the dress I was going to be teaching. Probably a good call. I completed this dress in under 8 hours. I'm getting faster and more accurate. Huzzah!

It's made from the Laughing Moon pattern #126, which I absolutely adore! My heart belongs to Laughing Moon anyway, but this dress pattern is just divine! It cuts and sews beautifully. I also discovered that I am exactly a LM size 14. No adjustments needed. First time for everything.

I'm pleased to say it was ready in time for my photo shoot with the lovely Natalie D'Aoust photography. We work together in our 9-5 lives, but have connected through our own creative endeavours. She agreed to take photos of my outfits! Yay!

A sneak peak:

How great is it that she travels with a step stool?

Once the photos are done, I'm sure you'll enjoy them as much as I do. Can't wait to share!
